[EFB Load error]

You shall not send them via this forum, you shall send them by email, that's why I wrote the email address 'support@aivlasoft.com'.

[Radio Panel - the "Service" column is empty]

For 'not-online' the service information is taken from the scenery data (BGL file). Most probably the service information is not contained in the underlying files. Did you install a new scenery? If so, which one?

[EFB Load error]

Reinhold,

you may send the two support files to support@aivlasoft.com. I will have a look at the files then.

[EFB Load error]

Could you please create two support files, one from the Client and one from the Server. Take the files more or less in the same time frame so the data is corresponding to each other.

[Can't start Aivlasoft EFB2 Server]

Try deleting the file C:\Users\<username>\Documents\AivlaSoft\EFB2\Server\Backup\aircraftState.bin

[EFB Load error]

Did you also reinstall FSUIPC7 ?

[New Active Sky FS !]

Because I don't have Active Sky for MSFS I don't know whether the filename is still the same as it is for other simulators ("current_wx_snapshot.txt") and whether the file format is still the same. But assuming that these requirements are still the same, then on the Server's side you have to set the proper file path to this file (in tab 'MSFS') and on the Client's side, open the settings, and select "Active Sky" as your weather data provider.

 

[Can't start Aivlasoft EFB2 Server]

Almost the right one, it is indeed the right file type, but I have asked for a support file from the SERVER because your report is related to EFB Server, not Client. Thanks.

[Can't start Aivlasoft EFB2 Server]

You have uploaded an exe-file, not the zip-file, therefore I have deleted the file. The support file is a zipped file which contains several text files.

 

You have to run the SupportFile.exe which creates a zip-file on the Desktop. Please upload the zip-file from the Desktop.

[Can't start Aivlasoft EFB2 Server]

Please create a support file from the Server and upload it here, thanks.

[error : length cannot be less than zero. Parameter name: length]

Please see here (same topic):

https://forum.aivlasoft.com/topic/8588-length-cannot-be-less-than-zero-error-when-starting-server/

 

["Length cannot be less than zero" Error when starting server.]

It seems that a faulty SIGMET file was downloaded a few days ago which now causes EFB to struggle when it is trying to read this file.

 

Before you start the Server next time, just remove the 'Downloads' folder in the Server's data structure. This folder will be recreated when the Server is starting and the content will be re-downloaded.

 

[MSFS Connection doesn't work]

Please check your files for viruses before uploading them. Thanks.

[AivlaSoft v2 problems]

Just posting a screenshot does not really help us to identify the cause for the error. Would you please be so kind and upload a support file from the Server and one from the Client, thanks.

 

One thing that I just have seen in the screenshot is, that you have selected a data path which is synchronized with the OneDrive cloud service. This is not a good idea because it will have an impact on stability of the program. Please uninstall EFB Server and reinstall it. Upon reinstallation be careful to select a data path which is not synchronized with OneDrive. BTW, same is valid for the Client's data path. Please check the Client's data path and if also located on OneDrive, proceed the same way as with the Server.

 

[MSFS crashes when loading a saved flight where EFB was active when saving]

I'm happy if it works now. I better should have written 'to be unsure' instead of 'having no idea' ;-).

 

[Traffic Filter - show labels only on aircraft inbound or departing your arrival / departure airport]

Thank you for your suggestion. Currently I do not have plans to introduce this functionality but I will reconsider it if there are more requests of this kind.

[Traffic Filter - show labels only on aircraft inbound or departing your arrival / departure airport]

As far as I can see there is already a possibility to set a filter for just inbound traffic to a certain airport, or just outbound traffic from a certain airport.

However, if I also use EFB and save various situations during a flight while EFB is loaded, this usually (but not always) results in a CTD of MSFS when loading these situations

I have no idea why MSFS is crashing when you save a situation in MSFS. Did you uncheck the option to automatically forward the EFB flight plan to MSFS in the aircraft profile for the PMDG 737?

[Request - rename user-defined waypoints]

Hi Ray

I have had a look at this and unfortunately it has too many side effects. It was not originally designed this way and would require a lot of code to update.

 

[Create Fligh Plan takes long time to load in EFB Client]

Could you please create a set of support files, one from the Client, one from the Server and then upload them here. Thanks.

[Any updates planned?]

I'm working on a technical update to keep the software running on newer systems. This update includes minor bug fixes but no new or changed functions.

[VATSIM Common Traffic Advisory Frequency (CTAF)]

Thanks Marc for testing and reporting back.

 

I have the impression that it is still too early to start implementation. Let's wait until the end of the trial and the possible findings.  Who knows whether it will become a permanent service and whether the specifications might still change.

[VATSIM Common Traffic Advisory Frequency (CTAF)]

Here's a screenshot from the test program, I just checked a few airports:

The output is formatted as JSON, so not really human readable ;-).

 

You see, some airports provide information about their CTAF, some others not.

 

Thanks!

 

 

[VATSIM Common Traffic Advisory Frequency (CTAF)]

I ran some tests with the API by randomly selecting airports from the SkyVector maps where a CTAF frequency is displayed. I have no idea why, but most of these airports seem not to be accessible through the API. In most of all requests I get the message 'airport could not be found'. Only a few requests have returned useful data. Interestingly the successful requests were always at the big airports like KJFK, KSEA, KLAX etc.
